  Players are generally aware of the fact that accurate signalling plays a key role in conducting a successful defence. In tournament bridge, especially, it is vital for the defenders to extract every ounce of value from the cards they have at their disposal. This book tells you how to do it. In a survey, the author covers every aspect of this difficult subject, introducing you to unusual signals. You may decide in the end that some of the subtler methods are not for you, but you may be stimulated by many of the ideas. Danny Roth also wrote Winning Play .

  Intended for any bridge player interested in defensive card-play, whether in theory or in practice, this book has two interwoven parts. The first consists of a wide-ranging description and evaluation of currently-used methods, accompanied by brief coverage of some obscure and out-of-date ones. Each method is judged according to pre-established standards, and the author's preferences emerge. The second part contains examples - both in the descriptions, showing the strong and weak points of different agreements, and in quiz form, enabling the reader to practise using and interpreting different signals.
